February Fiasco
01:22
|

|
hey everybody
we're the shytunas
and we signed up for the challenge
to write and record an album
in the shortest month there ever was
locked ourselves in our room
and we did not leave till we were through
ran out of food and ideas
our recording equipment took a dump
we were low on hope
had to record all the songs
on our cellphone
February fiasco

I'll be just fine
I'm going outside to find a
tornado made out of leaves
it's just one of my dreams now honey
I'll map out a plan
find a place that no one rakes
i'm searching this whole land
to stand in the middle of a leaf tornado
standing in the middle of a leaf tornado

Let's Write a Song
01:57
|
|||
|
the best songs come from the heart
accidently
the best songs come from the heart
not intentionally
and most of us will learn to love
eventually
and when we learn the songs will come
coincidentally
all I wanna do is write a song
yes all I wanna do is write a song
let's write a song tonight
let's write a song tonight
if it ain't perfect it's alright
let's write a song tonight
let's write a song tonight
if it ain't perfect it's alright
let's write a song tonight
let's write a song tonight
if it ain't perfect it's alright
if it ain't perfect it's alright

Raining Magic
01:38
|
|||
|
It's raining
Raining magic
It's raining
Raining magic
It helps the plants grow
Sometimes a rainbow
It's raining
Raining magic
Did you know that water comes from rain
That's why we exist
Did you know there's water inside your brain
In fact a lot of it
And plants use water to photosynthesis
It gets kind of complicated
Then produces oxygen
It's raining
Raining magic
It's raining
Raining magic
It helps the plants grow
Sometimes a rainbow
It's raining
Raining magic

She's a Mermaid Now

doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
doo doo doo doo doo doo
we went to the swimming hole with all our friends
had ourselves a real good time
but when we left we had noticed that
one of our friends got left behind
so we drove back in a flash and we looked around
but we didn't find anyone there
then up from the water jumped a great big fish
or a dolphin but it had hair
she's a mermaid now
a mermaid now
her legs fell off then she grew a tail
we asked her if she needed our help
maybe kiss a prince to get her legs back
she said no I like it here I'm really happy where I'm at
now we visit her every weekend
and she likes to show off her scales
and if she can turn into a mermaid
you can bet that someone else will
we're all mermaids now
mermaids now
mermaids now
we're mermaids now
our legs fell off and we grew some tails
ain't nobody knew we could swim
that well

I Like to Recycle
02:10
|
|||
|
I'm gonna recycle
Everything I can
And when I recycle
it makes me feel like I am
saving the world one can at a time
that's why I recycle
because the world is mine
I wanna recycle
anything I choose
I'm gonna recycle
all the paper I use
saving the world one page at a time
that's why I recycle
because the world is mine

I'm a Unicorn
01:35
|
|||
|
sliding down rainbows on my belly
skid up all 4 knees
got this horn growing out of my head
thought it'd be hard to disguise myself in times like these
instead I fit right in
i'm a unicorn
now there's books and movies
everyone asks where I've been
trapped inside a different dimension
sent back to this world
to save it from self destruction
pretty sure I can
i'm a unicorn
i'm a unicorn
and they don't even know
I saved this world before
3.5 billion years ago
they still don't have a clue
how massive crop circles are formed
happens every time a unicorn is born
i'm a unicorn
i'm a unicorn
i'm a unicorn
